Steps

1

Soak matta rice and raw rice for 5 hours.
2

Drain the water and grind the rice, coconut, and salt in a mixer/grinder with little water.
3

The batter should be thick and not like idli or dosa batter. Just sprinkle water little by little and grind it to a coarse paste.
4

If you have added more water while grinding, heat a pan and add the coarsely ground rice with coconut paste and in low flame just keep stirring the mixture for a couple of minutes.
5

Now take the flour and make a small lemon sized ball out of the batter. Repeat this step and make small balls out of rest of batter.
6

In a heavy bottomed pan add the water and when the water starts to boil add the rice balls and let it cook for 25-30 minutes.
7

Serve the delicious kozhukattai with water in which it is cooked along with onion chutney.
